What are cleaning supplies?

Wikipedia states, “Cleaning agents are substances (usually liquids, powders, sprays, or granules) used to remove dirt, including dust, stains, bad smells, and clutter on surfaces. Purposes of cleaning agents include health, beauty, removing offensive odor, and avoiding the spread of dirt and contaminants to oneself and others.”
Cleaning supplies can be cleaning accessories such as sponges, dusters, scrubbers, mops, brooms, vacuums. They can also be cleaning chemicals, green cleaning products, as well as supplies such as laundry products, dish detergents, and floor cleaning products.

What are the best professional cleaning products?

Molly Maids, a service with over 30 years of cleaning experience, shares their cleaning knowledge and it’s worth reading if you want to know what the professionals use to get the job done. The most important professional or house cleaning supplies are the all-purpose cleaner that can go from room to room and perform well in all situations. Molly Maids prefers Mr. Clean. For cleaning glass, windows and mirrors, Windex is top on their list for a variety of surfaces in addition to the usual glass, coated windows and mirrors. Windex works well on sealed marble and sealed granite. The original glass cleaner also makes shower doors, kitchen sinks along with kitchen and bathroom fixtures shine. An acid-based tile and grout cleanser like Scrubbing Bubbles or Arm & Hammer Scrub Free is an important product in removing soap buildup in bathtubs and showers. The Maids recommend the bleach versions of these bathroom cleaning supplies in areas with mildew. For pet stains, Molly Maids show no mercy. They use a multi-action, bio-enzymatic cleaning formula like Nature’s Miracle to clean below the carpet and into the rug pad and to the subfloor ensuring a complete clean. They also suggest Nature’s Miracle Laundry Boost for washing pet beds. It may be a good idea to stock up on these must-have professional cleaning products recommended by an experienced and reputable professional cleaning company.

How can I start my own cleaning business with no money?

Although not an ideal situation, you may be able to try and start a cleaning business without any initial money using these recommendations from HowStuffWorks.com:

Use credit cards - preferably ones without high interest rates. Pay off as soon as possible and never miss a minimum payment when due. This will negatively affect your credit score and curtail any possibility of getting loans or being approved for additional credit cards in the future.
Borrow money from friends and family. Remember to be professional and put everything in writing. Be careful because this can cause a serious conflict between friends or family members that can never be mended if you have trouble sticking to the repayment terms of the agreement.
Find a partner who's willing to invest in the business. Be prepared to give up a percentage of the business and a portion of the proceeds to the financial partner. Be sure to have a written agreement.
Apply for funding from the Small Business Administration and other government programs including bank loans.
